We could stop arguing and make personalities for different flows more =
easily. If more of gnetlist was in Scheme, I?d have implemented bus =
netlisting by now. So yes, we?d get more functionality.

I said I=92d have implemented it. I don=92t have a problem with Scheme.

So, switch to Xorn as your foundation, or convince a Schemer to =
implement what you want.

The existing foundation for geda-gaf is based on Scheme. That=92s an old =
decision that I had nothing to do with. I agree it was perhaps not the =
best decision. But I=92m perfectly happy to exploit it, as others have =
been through the history of the project.
